Journal ArticleDOI
Closed Loop Silicon Accelerometers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the derivation of mathematical models, which are presented together with simulated and test results obtained from the implementation of these strategies on a bulk-micromachined silicon sensing element employing capacitive signal pick-off.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combining Numerous Uncorrelated MEMS Gyroscopes for Accuracy Improvement Based on an Optimal Kalman Filter
TL;DR: Simulation and experimental tests of a six-gyroscope array proved that the presented approach was effective to improve the MEMS gyroscope accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyramidal micromirrors for microsystems and atom chips

TL;DR: Concave pyramids are created in the (100) surface of a silicon wafer by anisotropic etching in potassium hydroxide as discussed by the authors, and high quality micromirrors are then formed by sputtering gold onto the smooth silicon (111) faces of the pyramid.
Journal ArticleDOI
A dicing free SOI process for MEMS devices
TL;DR: In this paper, a full wafer, dicing free, dry release process for MEMS silicon-on-insulator (SOI) sensors and actuators is presented. But it is not suitable for the case of accelerometers and gyroscopes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Droplet formation by squeezing in a microfluidic cross-junction
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report an experimental study of droplet formation in a microfluidic cross-junction with a minimum number of geometrical parameters and propose several scaling laws to relate the droplet volume and frequency to the flow rate of both phases.
